THE San Francisco Call charges that the
opium habit is being encouraged in San
Francisco among children by Chinese pea
nut vendors, who make their vocation the
cover TO a nefarious traffic. In one case
three children in one family were found to
be addicted to the "habit;;" they procured
the drug OF the peddlers, and relate that
it is widely understood among boys in San
Francisco that of many of these nut sellers
the opium may be procured. 1t is said
that the peddlers do not deal with adult
"opium fends . at all, but confne their
business wholly to the corruption of small
boys. The particularly with which the
startling disclosure is made gives it the
character of truth, and our contemporary
youches for it as an additional guaranty
of verify. The law is sufficient for this
terrible evil, but its enforcement is mat
ter of extreme difficulty. To fix guilt
upon the opium seller is q task that is
very seldom accomplished. But this new
practice must be broken up. 1t cannot be
that we are to remain helpless in the pre-
sencs of this new dagger. The pernicious
trade must be upr,1.sd if it commands
the energies of all the officers of city and
State, and all the revenue Of all police
funds.

THE action of the political Central
Committees in refusing to take any action
in regard to the voting on the constitu-
tional amendments on the 18th inst, de-
serves commentator by the public. There
are no political issues involved in the mat
ter, and no call by the people or the stu
alton is made Tor interference by any Of
the organized political agencies. The
amendments stand upon their own merits;
they had the approval in the Legislature
of Republicans and Democrats alike, and
should have the unanimous Endorsement
of the people at the polls.

Free Trade.

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from pro-
prietary medicines, no doubt has largely
benefited the consumers, as well as reliev-
ing the burden of home manufacturers.
Especially is this the case with Green's Au-
gust Fzo,cer and Boschee's German Syrup, as
the reduction of thirty-six cents per dozen
has been added to increase the size of the
bottles containing these remedies, thereby
giving one-fifth more medicine in the 10
cent size. The august Fotoer for Dyspepsia
and Liver Complaint, and the German
Syrup for Cough and Lung troubles, have
perhaps the largest sale OF any medicines
in the world The advantage of increased
size of the bottles will be greatly appreci-
ated by the sick and afflicted in every town
and village in civilized countries. Sample
bottles. for 10 cents. remain the same size

| Mr.. FITZGERALD, who is well distant
from the scene of agitation, Eliminates in
the name of the friends of ireland in
America in these bombastic phrases i:
We have given up attempting to fight
England with old guns, revolyers and
knives. We will fight her now with
dynamite, poison, knives, fre-every wea-
pom the ingenuity of man can devise-if,
of course, the coercion bill is passed"
If Mr.. Fitzgerald voices the opinion of
the Irish National League, then that
organization deserves not only withdrawal
of all sympathy, but invites the execra-
ton of right-thinking people The cause
that proposes resort to such infamous
methods as Fitzgerald indicates, deserves
to fail. Fortunately this bombastic hero
of words and safe distance, will not receive
the commendation of Mr.. Gladstone and
Mr.. Parnell. Those reformers believe in
revolutions of sentiment without force of
arms. And if they should be led to con-
clude that physical resistance is jjustifable,
they will approve only the legitimate
methods of warfare. Fitzgerald has
shown how much he deserves to be retired
from the post he fills.

Do WOMEN want to vote? asks the San

Upon this question the people of several
of the States have passed, declaring in the
negative, while lesser number have re-
sPonded affirmatively and with limita-
tions-as in Kansas, where the practical
working Of woman suffrage, limited to
municipalities, is presently to be tested
The reasons advanced for denial Of the
full privilege have mainly been based
upon the assumption that the mass of
women do not wish to exercise the voting
privilege. Bat this is no good reason.
The desire mar be laggard in manifesting
itself, and need tSe grant of right to insure
its development. Women have been so
long taught that approach to the polls
means the leaving Of Eomsnly sensitive

GEORGE J. BAILEY was elected to tn
Legislature from East st. Louis, by the
vote of the Knights of Labor largely. He
was admittedly representative of the la
Dor interests, and as such received the sup
port of most labor organizations as well as
that of strong business influences. He re-
Gently united with other labor members in
a resolution condemning two members of
the Legislature for acting as pall-bearers
at the funeral of the wife of condemned
anarchist. Last Tuesday, as he was enter
ing his house, Mr. Bailey was fired upon by
an assassin, a heavy memorandum book in
his coat pocket intercepting the well-di-
rected bullet, intended for his heart. 1t
was narrow escape from death decreed
for him by men who pose as the friends Of
labor. No better evidence could be pre-
sented than this murderous assault,
to establish the fact that the Anarchists
and the honest working men of the coun-
try are not in sympathy. The former are
the enemies of all labor and all labor
thrift and saving, just as much as they are
the openly announced foes of men who ac-
quire and become employers, and the real
motors in manufacture, commerce, trans
portation and the general prosperity of the
country. The Anarchists attempted to
assassinate Bailey because, as labor rep
resentatiye he condemned the dynamite
infamies of the greasy-collared, long haired
murderers who rail atgovernment and con-
gregate in beer cellers to plot destruction
of life and property, and discuss wild the
cries about community in all things

hands to put an end to these evils, That
they are wcaponless now and Do not de-
mand the means to the esa, does not
prove that that it is unwise TO invest them
with the right to declare at the polls how
a Government that holds them to re-
sponsibility shall be conducted. As the
Call well says the scteechy order of women
who have been the leaders in the female
suffrage movement are largely responsible
for the shrinking of women FROM the
cause. But in most reforms the leaders
have been extremists, and by their urgency
have nearly always erected barriers be-
tween themselves and those who would
otherwise be co-laborers with them. But
these conditions will be reformed. Some
women do exercise the right granted to
them to vote. They constitute but very
small proportion of the total number so
invested, but wherever women have voted
they have most largely cast their ballots
against lSuOIdlCSJ 4uOStSIduSS, SOIIu plloii
and all evil influences This fact will in
time tell in their favor. twill lead men
who oppose corrupt influences to enlist
women in their cause, in order to intro
duce an element into politics that can be
counted on, in the main, to oppose ras-
cality and evil and demoralizing influences.
In that time ridicule will no longer have
the power to keep women in the back
ground; timidity will depart in the pres
ence of acknowledged power and duty to
make clean the political floor; the pro-
lection of their homes from the
vicious will give American women the
courage of heroism. Such cranky leaders
and extremist advocates as now pose as
the champions of the reform will be rele-
gated to obscurity, and the women of the
land will become great factors in the set
Element of political issues. The history of
all other reforms gives assurance that this
one will proceed upon the same path to
ultimate success.
